Israel's Bennet calls Qatar a 'cancer' and an 'enemy'

Former Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett has referred to Qatar as a "cancer" and an "enemy" in a recent interview on an Israeli podcast. Bennett blamed Qatar for the International Criminal Court (ICC) cases against Israeli leaders, asserting that the country is responsible for the targeting of Israeli citizens. He stated that Qatar is financing former ICC chief prosecutor Karim Khan, who had sought arrest warrants against Israeli leaders. Bennett expects current Israeli leaders to also label Qatar as an enemy.
